Were they living under Sharia?
 
No need to fear Gonzie!

Feb. 11 2011

"Egyptians have made it clear that nothing less than genuine democracy will carry the day,"
"The people of Egypt have spoken, their voices have been heard and Egypt will never be the same.

"The United States will continue to be a friend and partner to Egypt and we stand ready to provide
whatever assistance is necessary,and asked for, to pursue a credible transition to democracy."


"The military has served patriotically and responsibly as a caretaker to the state and will
now have to ensure a transition that is credible in the eyes of the Egyptian people,"
"That means protecting the rights of the Egyptian citizen, lifting the emergency law,
revising the constitution and other laws to make this change irreversible
and laying out a clear path to elections that are fair and free."

Barrack Hussein Obama
Mmmm Mmmm Mmmm!

I'm hopeful, but it is fluid. One day I'm a little more optimistic than others about it,
and I think there's going to eventually be a divide between the 'people'.
What happens at that time will start to show what will be.

Well in looks like now the real split is happening, and we are starting to see
other interest come in too.
The army may have to strong-arm some now.
The people that are more 'rabble rouser's'.
The real 'grass roots' are saying they are ready to get to 'work'.
The people that don't want to work are going to have to be more forcefully
broken up it seems.

I hope the 'responsible' people make note of the people that just want to
make more trouble, or just want handouts because of laziness or bad ideology.

This is possibly the 'dangerous' time for politics.

You would be better placed being concerned about the chimp who knows nothing of the event.

Read THIS and learn.

Note, also, the date on which this article was written.

Common knowledge for 30 years.
 
Oh good, it's Katie vs Sarah again. It wasn't important then & it's still goofy.

How about you show me your reading list.

you mean all the foundational stuff i read 15-20 years ago on the middle east? you got a fedex number i can use to ship the books?

but seriously jim, just read something more than a press clipping intended for an 8th grade audience. the group that shot sadat was an offshoot, a radicalized offshoot that was an embarrassment and quite antithetical to the original group. kinda like tim mcveigh is for you, or the new black panthers are to the NAACP. the muslim brotherhood renounced violence long ago, and their conduct over decades has legitimized that renouncement.

30 years of general peace & assistance wasn't enough. Now we have to have Sharia too.



Irrelevent. Unlike our Egyptian friends, our society would never allow such a blatant disregard of our Constitution.

Peace? Please! Pretty much had the same peace as that you can find in NK. 30 years of 'state of emergency' and special laws.

The military threw away the constitution..not just disregard it, recycled the mofo. Disbanded the gvt wholesale.

Considering a military takeover is in blatant disregard of the constitution, you'd be starting off on the wrong foot, eh.

Can you say "28th amendment"?
I knew that you could :lurk:
 
I'm trying to figure out why she was out/over there, after we all heard
that Palkot, Anderson, and several other reporters had already been beaten up,
and reporters ordered out.

I hate seeing someone get hurt like that, but there's more to this story.
Not that I'm justifying any of that reprehensible action, just that there's not much content.
Something seems amiss

some things are more meaningful than safety and comfort.
 
if that was the case, I look at it like soldiers in war, or cops...
They knew the risks, and accepted them.
Doesn't make what happened right, but the simple fact is, the 'real world' isn't always Fair.

The other info missing, that we may never know is...
in that particular section of people, what affiliations they had if any.
Like were they plants, just regular grass roots, age group, ...

or, are we to believe many on the far right that these people are just savages,
and Need to be ruled like Mubarak was doing?.
Is anyone over there from the crowd denouncing, or talking out about it?

There need be follow up on this.
